Welcome to quintessential WaterColor living at 11 Acorn Way, an impressive 5-bedroom, 5.5-bath, 4,384 sq. ft. home on an oversized corner lot in the highly sought-after Phase II. One of the largest carriage homes in the neighborhood, this residence is filled with standout details: a vaulted outdoor fireplace with hand-milled cypress beams, a temperature-controlled wine vault, a renovated kitchen, and soaring 14' ceilings with rustic beamwork that frame the expansive living and dining spaces. Designed to bring people together, the home offers five en-suite bedrooms, three separate laundry areas, and multiple covered porches that seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living. The primary suite is a true sanctuary with its own sitting area and dual walk-in closets. Recent updates, including refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint throughout, new Trane HVAC units, and a complete exterior repaint, make this property turn-key and move-in ready. The oversized lot also provides ample space to add a private pool, further enhancing its appeal as a family retreat or rental investment. Living in WaterColor means access to world-class amenities, starting with the WaterColor Beach Club, an expansive Gulf-front development with three resort-style pools, cabanas, multiple dining options, poolside bars, sunset decks, and direct beach access. This home is also just a short walk to Camp WaterColor, a family favorite featuring a pool with slides, a lazy river, zero-entry fun for little ones, outdoor dining, and a casual walk-up bar. Between the Beach Club and Camp WaterColor, you'll enjoy the best of both worlds, refined relaxation by the Gulf and lively, family-friendly recreation just around the corner. WaterColor also offers a tennis and pickleball center, Western Lake boathouse with paddleboards and kayaks, miles of biking trails, lush gardens, and several neighborhood pools. These exclusive amenities, reserved only for owners and guests, make WaterColor one of the most coveted destinations along Scenic Highway 30A. Offered furnished (with minor exclusions), 11 Acorn Way is ready to serve as a primary residence, a luxurious second home, or a proven rental investment with the rare ability to add a private pool for even greater enjoyment and value.
